That is a beautiful write-up on forcing BIOS for an OEM board.

Any thoughts on if this might be plausible for an earlier Gateway? I have a Gateway 310S that I've been struggling with upgrading. I've added memory, but it's not being detected and I suspect the problem has to do with the Gateway BIOS.

Here's some info on the mainboard and BIOS I'm using:

BIOS Type: AMI
BIOS Date: June 10th 2004
BIOS ID: 63-0100-000001-00101111-061004-iBRKDL_G-RG84510A
BIOS OEM: BIOS Date: 06/10/04 13:53:32 Ver: 08.00.10 - SR84511A.15A.0020.P03.0406101353
Chipset: Intel 2560 rev 1
SuperIO: Unknown
Manufacturer: Gateway
Motherboard: 310 2900058

The mainboard appears to be an Intel D845GVSR, but it described as "Intel Thrasher" in Gateway's Support links.

Thanks in advance, any help would be appreciated.
